If it's going to happen, it should probably start tonight, otherwise Phil Mackey will have a lot of discount T-shirts to sell.

He's been terrible. However, in his last terrible start against the Whities, he stole a win in a 9-5 Twins victory at Cellular Telephone Parkfield. He hasn't won since, because karma and a sinker that won't sink, I suppose.




Mark Buehrle

#56 / Pitcher / Chicago White Sox

6-2

He's been good. He does have a loss to Blackburn and a no-decision versus the Twins this year. The White Sox just got swept at home by the Yankees, so they need a victory just as badly as the Twins. Desperation: a stinky cologne.
